A computing system runs a productivity application that maintains an integrated, time ordered revision/undo stack. Entries in the revision/undo stack identify revision operations that a user has made to a document and corresponding undo operations that can be executed to undo the revision operation. The computing system detects an undo input indicative of a user actuating un undo actuator to undo a previous operation, that is prior to a most current operation that the user has performed. An operational transform system identifies an undo operation in the undo stack, corresponding to the revision that the user selected in the revision/undo stack. The operational transform system traverses the revision/undo stack to identify subsequent operations that were performed subsequent to the previous operation, and identifies one or more transforms to be applied to the undo operation based upon the identified subsequent operations. The operational transform system then transforms the undo operation, using the transformation function, and applies the transformed undo operation to the document.

Methods for representing crystal structure of inorganic materials in matrix form, and for quantitative comparison of multiple inorganic materials, can be employed to identify candidate materials with high potential to possess a desired property. Such methods can include conversion of an atomic coordinate set to a coordinate set for an anion only lattice, anion substitution, and unit cell re-scaling. Such methods can further include simulation of x-ray diffraction data for modified anion-only lattices, and generation of n&#xd7;2 matrices from the simulated diffraction data. Quantitative structural similarity values can be derived from the n&#xd7;2 matrices. The quantitative structural similarity values can be useful for structural categorization, as well as prediction of functional properties.
